Plenty of Rogue One Reading to Do!

Available in paperback March 28

Rogue One may
be out of most theatres now but will be available on home video on
April 4th (possibly earlier in digital format). Until then here’s a
quick look at some of the Rogue One books to enjoy now, and a few coming soon:

Rogue One
DK Readers Secret Mission (Level 4) – facts & details about the rebellion,
the Empire and more fill this levelled reader for confident, independent
readers, along with plenty of great photos from the movie. Almost like a mini
version of the fantastic Rogue One Ultimate Visual Guide. (DK Books)

Rogue One
Ultimate Sticker Encyclopedia – loaded with images from the movie, this hefty
sticker book features more than 1000 stickers and loads of information for
detail-loving young fans. Some of the aliens and droids barely seen in the film
are much clearer here. 96 pages of Rogue One fun! (DK Books)

Art of
Coloring: Rogue One – part of the popular trend of more “grown-up” style
coloring books, this has 128 pages of black and white line art images depicting
many characters, ships and designs from the movie. The simplified images may
also be helpful to young artists learning to draw the new Rogue One aliens and
droids. (Disney/Lucasfilm Press)
